This may not mean anything, but it looks like your disk is almost 90% 
full.  I don't know anything about macs and how they work, but I've 
seen problems occur when a disk gets this full.  Some programs use a 
lot of temp files.  Get several apps going at one time and you can eat 
a lot of disk space with temps.  Could be the disk was near full when 
it tried to autosave causing a corrupt file.  A full disk can cause a 
program or even the os to quit responding or behave oddly.  Just a 
thought.
